This is the 5th book in a series highlighting Darby McCormick, forensic investigator and an expert on serial killers. Although this is a series, this book is fine as a stand-alone. There are mentions made of some things that happened in prior books, but nothing that is not explained.

Darby is called to a small town in Colorado where someone is killing families. This is an intelligent killer, leaving no clues whatsoever. But Darby is in her element. As she gets closer to solving the case, the killer turns his attention to her.

As always, Chris Mooney has created a savage human monster, a predator that no one suspects. Under his writing, the reader is drawn in and cannot free themselves until the explosive ending. But beware, before arriving at the ending, there are twists and turns that will have you turning pages faster and faster to see what happens next.

Darby is a terrific series character. She's one tough cookie and will do whatever she needs to do to bring justice and closure for the victims.

This is one of my favorite authors, favorite series and I see that there is another one coming out in 2016. As usual, I highly recommend this one, but if possible, start at the beginning of Darby's adventures.
